The moon has always been considered a mysterious place by many, and numerous legends surrounded this celestial body that revolved around the earth.

Like many myths, these legends grew out of fear and fascination of humans toward the unknown, and thus, the moon remained, and always will remain, one of the most mystifying objects humans have laid their eyes upon. Poets will continue to write about the haunting abstruseness of the moon, composers will continue to compose songs based on the romantic atmosphere that the moon casts over young lovers all over the world, and writers will continue to craft paragraphs upon paragraphs of the ethereal beauty that the moon undeniably holds.

But like most mysterious things, the moon isn't pure. It isn't what it looks like, nor is it eternally beautiful as many think it is. For why does it show only one side of itself to the earth? Why does it need to conceal the other side?

For behind its crater infested surface, it holds an evil. An evil that haunts only those who are victimised by it, but that remains concealed from the eyes of others, easily veiled by the enchanting beauty of the pale light that has been stolen from the sun.

The moon shines in its popularity, basks in its glory, and everyone fails to identify the evil that goes on behind its walls.

And the moon laughs evilly as it fools the entire human race.
